Rejected But Wanted By The Alpha King

Introduction
It is tradition that any Alpha without an heir at age 35 would lose his pack to the next best contender. And in this case, Alpha Seth's younger brother, who was an arch enemy, was the next best available contender, and he was willing to do just anything to make sure his brother, Seth, lost the pack to him.
Disgraced and forced out of her pack after her husband found out he had a second fated mate, Rashel left with the one thing Seth needed to retain his pack – Her pregnancy.
She was given a second fated mate, who turned out to be the Alpha King, Jethro. The one man who held the entire werewolf nation in his palm.
Rashel thought that life had given her and her baby a second chance, since Alpha Jethro loved her to the moon and back. But what she didn't know was that her misery had only just begun, because not only did Seth regret letting her go, but now he desperately needed her and his child—the heir to his pack—back in his life. But this would be over Alpha Jethro's dead body.
Rashel is caught in the middle of an impending war between the man she once loved and the man with whom she gradually built a new life.
Now, she has to find out where her heart truly lies and whom she wants to spend the rest of her life with.
Chapter 1
"You barren witch. It amuses me how you actually think life is all about making successes in business." The words of her mother-in-law sliced through the loud music that penetrated the walls of Rashel's matrimonial room.
"You plan to let me die without seeing my grandchildren? I'll make sure to throw you out of my son's life sooner than you think!" Mrs. Charlotte spat, pointing her perfectly manicured fingers at Rashel, who stood with a neutral expression.
Rashel was used to this. The only difference about the former Luna's words to her today was that she, Rashel, was about to prove her wrong.
She was never barren. In fact, she was pregnant and waiting to share the news with Seth, her mate, whom she had been married to for the past three years.
It was a big day for Rashel and the Nightwish pack. They had organized one of the biggest business gala ever hosted in two years.
The Nightwish pack was the fourth largest pack in the country. They were respected by all.
Seth was proud of her, and that was all that mattered.
"Mum, I'd like to return to the party. I only came to use the restroom," Rashel said with a forced smile that seemed to reach her sapphire eyes as she walked past Charlotte.
Outside, a lot of dignitaries graced the occasion. It was such a pity that Alpha Jethro couldn't make it to the party.
Rashel had never met with the lycan king. Ever. She only reached him through his Beta, Gamma, PAs... He was so unavailable to the public. But seeing that today was a significant day when people come to get business contacts and make new acquaintances, she wished he would be present.
She was dying to show him the Fortis Security Network. The project is a Tech Integration for Pack Security involving the implementation of cutting-edge security systems and technology to protect the pack's territory and assets.
This project will be beneficial not just to their pack but to other packs who might want to partner with her pack. And, considering the fact that Alpha Jethro is the CEO of the biggest Tech Company in the country and beyond, he was the best person to talk to about this project.
"Hello, beautiful. May I have this dance?" A familiar voice pulled her out of her wishful thoughts.
Rashel smiled sheepishly, wrapping her arms around his neck - her husband. The man to whom she had given her all for the past four years now.
Seth, 31, was the man after her heart. They had dated for one year and had decided they were meant for each other, even though the Moon Goddess deemed it fit to pair them.
"Come here, baby," she pulled him in, capturing his lips in hers in a passionate kiss.
Rashel's gaze rested on Fiona, Seth's sister, who sat with her group of friends, glaring at her, their eyes shooting daggers at her.
She only smiled. Her marriage to Seth was opposed by his family, except his late father, Alpha Kingsley, who loved her like his own daughter.
But she didn't care. As long as she had Seth's love and support, every other person can kiss her ass.
Suddenly, Rashel felt Seth's body stiffen under her embrace. He slowly pulled away, sniffing the air.
Seth's eyes darkened with a sudden intensity, his grip loosening on Rashel's waist as he inhaled deeply. The transformation in his demeanor was immediate and jarring.
Seth's nostrils flared, his gaze darting toward the entrance of the ballroom.
"Is something wrong?" Rashel asked, her voice laced with concern as she gazed into Seth's Hazel eyes. But Seth's attention had already drifted, his expression clouded with something she couldn't immediately place.
His eyes flashed a subtle shade of green. His wolf fought to take full control.
It was at that moment Rashel understood what was going on. Her husband just found his mate.
She followed her husband's gaze, and there, she saw her... The woman who was going to ruin her life. Her husband's mate.
The young, elegant lady stepped into the ballroom with grace and poise that made Rashel's stomach churn.
Her long, dark hair cascaded in glossy waves down her back, framing a heart-shaped face. Her deep green eyes sparked with a captivating glint that drew attention.
She walked forward, obviously feeling the same way Seth felt as her gaze swept the entire hall before resting on Seth's enchanted form.
"No. Seth. Come back here!" Rashel said in a desperate whisper as her husband abandoned her in the middle of the hall, walking toward the other woman as if his life depended on it.
The crowd erupted in a murmur.
A dam threatened to break from Rashel's eyes as her gaze rested on Charlotte and Fiona. They had this satisfied look on their faces that would haunt her for the rest of her life.
Her heart pounded in her chest as she watched Seth close the distance between them.
She struggled to process the sudden, sharp pain that pierced her heart when the woman smiled at Seth, and he returned the smile as he pulled her into a warm embrace.
Recognition dawned on Rashel. That was Viola. The Beta's sister, who had been studying abroad since she was a teenager.
She shamelessly ran after Seth, not minding the crowd staring at her. This was her marriage. Her life. Her man. She had to fight for it all.
"Seth! What... What are you doing?" Her teary eyes searched his desperately, her slender palms holding onto his large arm.
"Stop it, Rashel. You are making a scene," Seth whispered to her, looking around the curious eyes of the crowd.
"Hi..." Viola said to Rashel before turning to meet Seth, "Who is she?" Her sugary voice asked with an equally sweet smile.
Seth swallowed. "Uh... She's nothing we can't take care of. You don't have to worry about her."
At that point, the world seemed to tilt for Rashel. Her legs felt suddenly weak as if the very ground beneath her was giving way. She could barely grasp the cold hardness of Seth's arm, her fingers trembling and losing their strength as they slipped away.
Her legs buckled beneath her, her knees giving way as her vision narrowed to a dark, suffocating tunnel. She tried to call out, but no words came before she finally gave in to the darkness that threatened to envelop her.

Iron And Glamour Just Don't Mix
Well… Sometimes you just might turn out to be right.
It turns out, the fae stole my little brother. In his place? A pixie with boundary issues and a talent for home repairs.
I’ve spent my life taking care of everyone else. So when my baby brother is taken, I don’t hesitate. I walk straight into a faerie mansion and make a bargain with its infuriatingly charming master.
Kie is everything you’d expect from a dangerous fae, beautiful, political, and entirely too amused by me. Power wrapped in a smirk. Sensual, mischievous, and far too aware of the effect he has on people. He agrees to help me find my brother.
For a price.
Now I’m bound by a faerie bargain and navigating a world of glamour, manipulation, and ancient rules I definitely should have learned sooner, enchanted forests, political games, magical contracts, and a fae lord who treats seduction like a perfectly reasonable negotiation tactic.
Iron is how I keep people out.
Glamour is how he draws them in.
And apparently, they just don’t mix.
Offside Temptation
Ethan Ryder was a disaster waiting to happen. Hot-headed, reckless, and constantly one bad decision away from ruining his career. I was supposed to hate him. Instead, I memorized him. I learned exactly how to push his buttons on the ice just to see the fire in his eyes.
When he grabbed my jersey in that locker room and kissed me in front of twenty cameras, it wasn't a mistake. It was the moment the line between hatred and obsession finally snapped. The media called it a scandal. They called us a divorced couple. But they didn't see the way Ethan trembled when I cornered him in the hallway afterward.
"You're staring again," he whispered, his back hitting the wall.
"You're still here," I replied calmly, stepping close enough to feel his erratic pulse.
He thought I was cold. He thought I was controlled. He didn't realize that every time he looked at me, I was fighting the urge to completely destroy the distance between us.
Now, the league is forcing us to live together, train together, and smile for the cameras to fix our public image. But the more time we spend alone in my apartment, the harder it is to pretend I just want to play hockey...
Oops. My Boss Was Seventeen
The Execution: Perfect. I brought him coffee, cheered at his games, and basically operated as his unpaid teenage executive assistant. He’s totally buying it.
The Problem: I was trying to network my way into the C-suite. I think I just networked my way into his bed.

Forced into a connection he didn’t choose, Kruz is tied to a girl—whether he wants it or not. She’s a complication. A problem. A constant reminder that his life is no longer his own.

As pressure builds and danger closes in, Kruz is forced to walk a line few survive—between duty and desire, control and instinct, the life he had and the one being forced upon him.

It’s given.

The Pack: Rule Number 1 - No Mates
"Let me go," I whimper, my body trembling with need. "I don't want you touching me."
I fall forward onto the bed then turn around to stare at him. The dark tattoos of Domonic's chiseled shoulders, quiver and and expand with the heave of his chest. His deep dimpled smile is full of arrogance as he reaches behind himself to lock the door.
Biting his lip, he stalks toward me, his hand going to the seam of his pants and the thickening bulge there.
"Are you sure you don't want me to touch you?" He whispers, untying the knot and slipping a hand inside. "Because I swear to God, that is all I have been wanting to do. Every single day from the moment you stepped in our bar and I smelled your perfect flavor from across the room."

He was a beast inhabiting this mansion, inflicting inhuman torture on my poor soul. He had created a living hell for me, this pitiful girl, within his castle.
On this cold winter night, he threw my wounded body into the icy pool, arrogantly enjoying it all, drinking and smoking expensive cigars. A satisfied, cold smile played on his lips as he reveled in my pain. His face was filled with the darkness of sin.
“How...more...am I…still…standing?” I stammered, my lips trembling.
Zain paused, thinking. Then, turning away from her, he replied:
“Until you die!”
With that, he left. As he wished. At that moment, my wish came true; I died.
But not in a frozen pool; I was struck in the head by a bullet from afar, blood splattering everywhere—that was far more gruesome.
My consciousness began to fade, but suddenly, I opened my eyes again and found myself mopping the floor in an ordinary restaurant.
I was startled: What happened? I was reborn? This is unbelievable!

Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.
It’s not my problem if Tyler’s an idiot.
It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.
I’m not here to rescue anyone.
